I dont care how big or small a channel may be, this is the kind of content I love listening to. Always nice to hear the opinions of people who dont really know the series.
Somewhere around half way through your mom asks if there are any Australian characters. There is one (Zappa), but the last game he was playable in was Guilty Gear XX Accent Core +R, and he only showed up in cutscenes in XRD. He is by far one of my favorite characters (gameplay wise atleast) and I HOPE they get added to strive
I think the "short of breath" line from may's theme means sick of waiting. Like how people say don't hold your breath. She's saying she can't wait to catch up to him unless he is sick of waiting. Also, that song slaps
I love how you gave the detailed lore explanation of things and she just fuckin rolled with it. Like so much of it couldve been explained without full context but she just listened to that context and got it. Fair fucking play to her
he's the guilty gear because he helped create them. Slayer gave him the name Sol because his spirit blazed like the sun, and he was definitely doing crimes later on, which earned him the nickname Badguy.
The Testament's theme's meaning goes even deper. They we're born as a man, but when they were killed they were forcibly resurrected into a gear becoming both male and female (in other words non-binary). Hence the interchangeable he and she in the lyrics After getting turned into a gear, Testament was under control and was made to do horrible acts, which they didnt want to do, but couldn't disobey. That's why when they regained their true self, they we're tormented by all the memories. So in the song "He" represents their life before becoming a gear and "she" the time they were under control Testament's theme is very emotional and beautiful, telling a story of coming to terms with and accepting themself and finding peace. Which is represented in the theme as "we are one of a chain". Really recommend relistening to it with all of this in mind
Thank you so much bro I was really confused by the meaning and the comments on the video weren't really helping. I certainly will re-listen with all of this in mind

Great video! A month late and I hope this doesn’t come off as rude but I’ll try to clear up any lore questions/misremembered bits: Frederick was originally working on the gear project with (his later wife) Aria and their close mutual friend That Man (Asuka Kreutz). The original purpose of the project was to push humanity’s evolution to the next stage thanks to magic being introduced due to Y2K coming to pass. Aria fell sickly to an incurable disease and was put to cryosleep eventually in order for a cure to be found in the future. That Man would then forcibly turn Frederick into a gear by implanting the Flame of Corruption into him. Shocked by this turn of events, when Frederick confronted That Man he said that they were never friends and he had ran off (thanks to the help of the American military at the time who were interested in the gear project) with Aria’s cryosleeping body. Vowing revenge against That Man, Frederick began attacking military bases in order to track him down and was dubbed “Badguy”. He would also eventually be bestowed the name “Sol” by Slayer because his “passion shined as bright as the sun”. Sol is called the Guilty Gear because he is a gear who took a vow to destroy all other gears, a traitor to his own kind. He’s bestowed this name by Justice who was the first Command-type gear who could take control of all Gear except Sol ( he was the original prototype) because of his revenge against gears. Ky’s eye transplant did work for Sin, they swapped left eyes (Ky’s dragon instal comes from his left side and Sin keeps his right eye covered) because Sin can’t control his gear powers that come from his eyes so Ky swapped eyes with him so that Sin could see. Ky is the 1st king of Illyria which is a kingdom created from the remnants of Europe and is ruled together by 3 kings. The inscriptions by the holy order knights was inspired by Ky. During the Battle of Rome Ky was nearly killed as his entire platoon was killed by Gears. In honor of them he carved “Hope” on to his belt as only through Hope could humanity make it to the next day, Sol seeing this then carved “Free” into his Headband and it just took off from the there.
Ohh, so Sin's covered eye is his original eye, I thought he covered Ky's because it was a failed transplant, this makes way more sense now xD thank you for all of this!
Nice video, but you really should've looked into writing up condensed and easily digestible lore of each character beforehand 😅 Also wish you had told her about Sol's Freddie Mercury references.
I just used ChatGPT to make condensed versions of their backstories as written on the wiki. I couldn't rely on my own memory, and I wasn't gonna read each one myself individually, so yeah Thanks for watching :D
@@SincereSneakyy chatgpt isn't really like reliable, i used chatgpt once for like explaining an anime but the responses of gpt was completely wrong with many characters mixed up, and abilities completely wrong, idk why😅 but i re did it again and that time it was correct
Leo does actually have SEVERE survivors' guilt as shown by how he treats his underlings in XRD, but he hides it under his bravado as a means to cope. It's why he is so cheesy.
also i will not stand for baiken slander (also clouddrop's video on her theme's lyrics are infamously almost all incorrect, it's better to use capnbrook's lyric video for baiken specifically because it has the correct lyrics from the album)
I thought since that arm lit up during his Dragon Install it might’ve been his skin Also yeah, I knew the official lyrics were different but for the sake of simplicity and cool gameplay footage playing alongside I just wanted to use the CloudDrop playlist Thanks for watching :D
I think I literally just forgot to drag the footage in lol I'm so sorry mate In the second video (prob when all the DLC is released) I'll include the Axl and Chipp ratings :)
I realize I still play GG after many years and I bet Iam old enough to be dad of at least the half of the ppl in the comments, a "Mum ranks" or "Dad ranks" should not be very different from "I rank" but then again, I have no children c: maybe if I didnt play so many GG I would have children but I would be game iliterate, cant have both.
Love the video, though I think a lot of your explanation of charcter seems a bit too complicated than it has to be and it may have made your mom quit confused.

1:00:13 Baiken and Delilah may have let go of revenge but ur mom hasn’t.
"Happy chaos.....? Get rid of him." had me crying, she a strive player fr 😭
My favorite moment from the video lol
"Shes so pregnant" killed me
My wife said the same thing when she saw that portrait
My grandfather said the same thing

i cant not mention your GIANT amount of tabs please pretty please close some of them for my well being
I didn't even realize 💀
Since recording this I learned the hard way 💀so I only have around 5 tabs open at a time now

Your mum's reactions to Jack-O and Baiken is exactly how my mum would respond as well 😂.

It feels so weird to sum Fausts fall as "he failed to save a patient so he went on a murderous rampage." But it's not wrong.
HI MUM!
This a great concept of a video
You got sol's backstory messed up
He killed his wife 3 fucking times, that's why he's the guilty gear
I was going off of memory and my memory sucks lol
@@SincereSneakyy fair enough, the lore of the game doesn't help
Btw the british man in jorts can literally END THE UNIVERSE WITH A DECISION
@@smithbabies7886 *NOTHING MORE I SAY, NOTHING CHANGED BY WORDS*
(that's the song playing in that xrd scene btw-)
Great video! I've really enjoyed it.
Thanks for watching! :D
Damn this game really does have good music
I like the subtle edit you did, transitioning into the instrumentals of the songs before the commentary begins.
I think this is the only time we will ever see Trigger ranking high in a music tier list
Sad
Great video, although I do kind of wish she listened to smell of the game.
It wouldn't have been able to go on the tier list, but thank you for watching :D
@@SincereSneakyyI understand, thanks for the reply!
we needed a real lore head here your mom isn't getting the full guilty gear experience
oh i forgot to schedule it
Leo does actually have SEVERE survivors' guilt as shown by how he treats his underlings in XRD, but he hides it under his bravado as a means to cope. It's why he is so cheesy.
ky jsut has an arm compress on there's no lore reason for it.
also i will not stand for baiken slander (also clouddrop's video on her theme's lyrics are infamously almost all incorrect, it's better to use capnbrook's lyric video for baiken specifically because it has the correct lyrics from the album)
I thought since that arm lit up during his Dragon Install it might’ve been his skin
Also yeah, I knew the official lyrics were different but for the sake of simplicity and cool gameplay footage playing alongside I just wanted to use the CloudDrop playlist

what happened to my boy axl?
I know he's british but he's trying his best
I think I literally just forgot to drag the footage in lol I'm so sorry mate
In the second video (prob when all the DLC is released) I'll include the Axl and Chipp ratings :)
This was a pretty cool vid
I always thought Sol was the Guilty Gear because he had to kill his wife like 4 times and that made him feel guilty
the amount of tabs at the start of the video (ive only seen the start so far) is concerning
holy mother of tabs...
LOOK at how many search tabs he has at the top of the browser wtfffffff
I realize I still play GG after many years and I bet Iam old enough to be dad of at least the half of the ppl in the comments, a "Mum ranks" or "Dad ranks" should not be very different from "I rank" but then again, I have no children c:
maybe if I didnt play so many GG I would have children but I would be game iliterate, cant have both.
Haha I'm sure there's a balance to be made
Where did you find the no lyrics versions of the songs to put in the background? Good video btw
Just looked em up on YT, there's a few different uploads of each song so I pulled from various channels. Also thank you!
No you explained Bridgets theme wrong, the town refers to the town she ate and is now inside her.
pretty sure its "just lean" as in very like,, muscular,, healthy
Ohh probably. I was just going with my boyfriend's interpretation lol

1:42:58 two women? No, not really, more like one and a half and one is only a woman at the end
why only instrumental version? kinda halved content
She listened to the vocal versions.
